Yeah... Fun fact, if you have a pirated version of Subnautica and you install Nitrox (Subnautica Multiplayer Mod), the nitrox app will start flashing in different colors and playing the song "You are a pirate!". And if you close the app the audio is still there, it stops only if you turn it off through Task Manager. You can try it yourself!

Mad respect for bringing more publicity to modding for subnautica instead of going with the usual youtuber clickbait formula that youtubers start to drift to with subnautica videos. Ever since you started making videos on mods I've noticed more and more people use mods and I don't think that's a coincidence. We need more people like you on this platform

This was very helpful thank u bacon....


Now all i need is a pc

Thank you for presenting this in an understandable way! I can't tell you how happy I am to start playing this game again, this time around with some interesting mods. Be well

[RealGoogOogGaming]

This was a very helpful tutorial and a surprisingly simple process. As always I appreciate the quality of your videos.

Dude putting the date in the title is the best! So many times I'll be reading a whole walkthrough of instructions on something, or watch a whole video, that is way longer than it needed to be, only to find out it's out of date and completely obsolete. Here you are with the date and a reasonably sized video! Thanks mate!
I've been trying to get VR enhancements to work.
I really don't want to have to use vortex but I tried putting the folder into the Subnautica folder and it didn't change anything. So I guess I will have to.

Hey bacon :P I was wondering, how do you add a mod from a external webpage (not nexus mods) into the vortex file. For example i downloaded the FCS subnautica mod, but i got no idea where to put it. Any suggestions?

[Gamering]

Thanks for explaining this in an understandable way. All the other guides I found were confusing to me but yours was much easier.

Thank you so much for this video! I have been playing subnautica for so long and I hate to say it, but I have been bored of it recently. This video has brought the fun of subnautica back to me and I am so happy I get to re-enjoy subnautica again. Have an amazing day, Bacon!!!

Great video, you also answer everyone's questions here which helped me get my map mod to work. I had a lot of issues with Vortex so I ended up not using it. But everything works well now. Thank you for all you do!

[paulwesely]

Absolutely amazing video, the way you show the information is incredibly easy to understand and makes it super easy to get going. Thank you for the amazing video!!!

[dawningofdumb]

So much more easier than all the other tutorials. thanks!

[will]

very clear and throughout thank you i’ll use this later

[jwildj]

Thanks man! This really helped me install mods for Subnautica. Keep up the good work!

[MarianzYT]

Oh man, i was waiting this.
I remember that i posted a comment on the original video cause the "mod tab doesn't show up when opening the game via Vortex" thing got me. I'm glad this video came out, maybe i can finally start looking for some of the excellent content that all of the mods provide

[reginaldfish]

:0 I really like the wallpaper/background you have on your desktop!

I downloaded the terraforming tool, and the ultra propulsion cannon.
Lets say that the hatch to the outside was nothing. Just a wall that just isnt there. Just walk outside. I love those mods.

[MidgetPally]

Dude thank you so much for this, and thanks to the modders who made the amazing fix for Subnautica VR!

[M_Peti]

Thank you so much! I watched many other youtubers about this but nobody could explain it as good as you did
